You probably don't know the name. But if you had your tv on from 1950 to 2001 you watched him play a ton of characters. He was a western favorite of mine.

Check out his IMDB

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0030516/

He was married to Barbara Eden during her Genie-Jeanne years.

He also notably played Kang, one of the original Klingons on Star Trek. And then he reprised the role more than 30 years later.. :ThmbUp:

Cochise.
Role I best remember him for. That and his guest spot on Star Trek, Kang.

Off topic, but another recent celebrity passing was Eileen Brennan. Noted for The Last Picture Show, Private Benjamin, The Sting, and others.

Billie (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0107281/): Who told you this guy was in here?
Lieutenant William Snyder (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001164/): Nobody. I just know what kind of woman he likes. Going to check all the joy houses till I find him.
Billie (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0107281/): Oh, well maybe I could help you, if you tell me his name.
Lieutenant William Snyder (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001164/): I doubt it. Which way are the rooms?
Billie (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0107281/): Right through there. But I wouldn't go in there if I were you.
Lieutenant William Snyder (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001164/): What you are going to do, call the cops?
Billie (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0107281/): I don't have to. You'd be busting in on the Chief of Police just up the hall.
